Do you collect any non-tv related items?

I am a compulsive collector of usb thumb drives, pens and mechanical pencils, pockets-sized flashlights, and all forms of canada goose trinkits.

I've even considered having a canada goose likeness carved into my tombstone.

Comic books, and books that collect runs of comic strips.

I enjoy the books that assemble all the "Dilbert strips

I collect dragons and I collect anything from dragon photos to dragon jewelry and I even have a small collection of stuffed dragons as well. I also collect anything Marvel and Star Wars too
Bestie

Records,8 tracks tapes and cassettes are 3 of my favourites...

Oh I've done my share of collectibles, and have some in drawers now as I got sick of dusting and looking at the stuff....I still have a small collection of budda figures that were my last collectible thing. Antique shops are full of collectibles....

Souvenir shot glasses of places I’ve been to
Decks of Playing Cards
Business Cards / Matchbooks (esp. of defunct places)
Disney Pins
Zippo Lighters
Cigar Bands
Autographs


Some of those items happen to be tv/movie related... like "The Sopranos" and "Sons of Anarchy" have their own cigars, "The Walking Dead" and "Cheers" have playing cards, etc...

I have some Dilbert books from Andrews McMeel, the main thing being the big hardcover collection done some years back. Here are the strips I have the most books of:

Buck Rogers
Captain Easy & Wash Tubbs
Dick Tracy
Li'l Abner
Little Orphan Annie
Peanuts
Prince Valiant
Spirit by Eisner
Steve Canyon
Tarzan by Foster & Hogarth
Terry & the Pirates

I stopped collecting them a long time ago, but I have over 125,000 pocket schedules. I used to write sports teams and colleges for them. It was fun to receive free stuff like stickers. It got to be an expensive hobby with the postage. It would be easier to collect and make requests these days by e-mail.

I have over 1,200 film score/soundtrack cds in my collection. I sold off many of my most rare/limited edition ones already.

Reading on all you collectors and thinking wonder if people in other countries are collectors".... I'm into my 10th yr of "getting rid of phase".....

Gotta leave something of interest for whoever finds my body. Don't want to disappoint them with just callous scrapers and half-used tubes of chap stick.

Wonder if anyone ever uses the abandoned tubes of chap stick found in possession of deceased people?. Usually I try to touch as little as possible of dead peoples personal effects.

good grief GJ, wild imagination !!

I collect:

Trading Cards--the first thing I ever collected was Wacky Packages in 1973
Record Albums
Comic Books
Movie/Teen magazines from the 60's and 70's

good grief GJ, wild imagination !!

No,...not imagination at all. I've been the one to discover deceased people quite a few times, and I've been involved in cleaning out the estate of recently deceased people numerous times.
And there always seem to be a few loose ends, such as a half used chap stick, or other intimately personal items that you just don't want to touch.

You know a genuine "E'wwwww!" moment.

I have in my bedroom, fall issues of TV guides going back to 1969 and in a box individual articles written in tv guide from the mid 1970's. Articles about Tom Bosley, Karen Grassle and others. Somewhat hard to think they are almost 50 years old.

I collect biographies on actors/actresses from the Silent Era of motion pictures.

OMGoodness, what a bunch of paper, the first thing that came to my mind is bugs that collect in books and papers, and I've found a few over the years and I don't collect but in a little pile or papers I've found bugs....and termites are known to collect in books, and the possibility of a fire.

Reminds me kinda of a story from a gf about a guy she was dating and his living room had paths and piles of newspapers he never threw away....she said it was gross.
